Description

Tissue imaging method and system for eliminating CT high-impedance artifact interference
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of image processing, and particularly relates to a tissue imaging method and a tissue imaging system for eliminating CT high-impedance artifact interference.
Background
In the clinic, there is often an implantation procedure requiring an implant to be implanted into a tissue, and there may be a certain risk if the implant is not implanted well. In short, if the implant is out of a predetermined range, it may injure surrounding important tissues such as vascular nerves and the like; on the other hand, if the three-dimensional position of the implant is not optimal in the long term, it may cause a malfunction of the vehicle and even the implant may fall off due to the failure of the combination with the tissue, which may cause damage to the patient. Therefore, after the implantation operation is completed, the doctor can take a post-operation picture of the patient to check whether the implantation position condition is in accordance with the expectation, and the imaging data is a key basis for the doctor to judge whether the implant needs to be removed or not and carry out delayed secondary implantation.
However, most of the existing implants are made of high-refractive materials (such as metal), and a lot of researches show that after the high-refractive materials are implanted into tissues, the implanted periphery of the high-refractive materials generates 'hard bunching' artifacts in CT images, and the artifacts can seriously influence the interpretation of the position of the implant and the tissues adjacent to the implant by a clinician.
In order to eliminate the artifact effect, the artifact removing processing is thought to be performed on the CT image, but the existing artifact removing methods are all based on the noise reduction processing of the noise reduction image of the calculation processing layer, and a computer engineer is required to complete the processing work, so that the clinician is difficult to understand and apply to the clinic. Furthermore, no simple and easy-to-learn software exists so far, which enables a clinician to obtain artifact-removed images from conventional CT data.
